AC1750 lost 2.4

Had to shut down a breaker at the panel, when turned back on I no longer broadcasting on 2.4. My 5 is ok. most of my home devices will only work with the 2.4. have powered off and unplugged a variety of times, no luck. Did the breaker power up burn out the 2.4?

    There are a lot of AC1750 class hardware devices.

     

    Need to know the full model number of your router.  Look on the nameplate on the back.  Most likely starts with an R.

        The manual Wi-Fi on/off button is the second one down from the top.  It controls both the 2.4 and 5 GHz radios.  Toggle the on and off a couple of times to see if the 2.4 GHz radio comes back on.  See attached screen snip.

         

        Check both ends of your power adapter, the cord, and the receptacle it plugs in to.  Maybe try a different receptacle.
